Chapter Eighty-Eight: There Are Always Peaks and Loops
After watching Xie Jinwu leave, Ding Qian returned to the sales office and said to himself: "How can this Xie Jinwu appear on Freezer Street!" β
Hu Ge listened and said, "Why, you knew this Gongzi Xie before." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
Ding Qian shook his head and said, "I don't know!" β
Hu Ge said: "I don't know what to do so much? People surnamed Xie have the money and are willing to go there. β
Ding Qian smiled and did not speak again.
Qiu Ju stepped forward and said: "Shopkeeper Ding, I have been silent for more than ten days, and I haven't had a single customer, but I didn't expect such a rich lord surnamed Xie to come today, and he bought five stores at once, which is really a turning point." β
Ding Qian smiled and said, "Yes! That's where the peak turns. Although Ding Qian didn't know that Xie Jinwu was Wang Qinruo's protΓ©gΓ©, he concluded in his heart that it must be Chen Changzhou who said that Emperor Zhenzong had moved Emperor Zhenzong to add a city gate on Freezer Street.
Xie Jinwu bought five shops at once, needless to say that they must be used for speculation, saying that he would do business by himself, and the ghost would believe it, he was called Tun Ji Qi, just wait for the city gate to open, and he will sell it.
Thinking of this, Ding Qian said to Hu Ge: "Hu Ge, hurry up and take off the price list hanging on this wall." β
Hu Ge said in surprise: "Take it off, aren't we going to sell the house?" β
Ding Qian nodded solemnly and said, "Sell, why don't you sell it, but you can't sell it at the current price." β
Hu Ge said: "Then you are going to sell it at a reduced price." β
Ding Qiandao: "What do you want, sell at a reduced price?" How could it be. I want to sell it for another three hundred taels per household. β
Hu Ge said in surprise: "Ah, add another three hundred taels of silver to each household, then isn't this the actual price of one thousand two hundred taels of silver per household!" This has not been opened for more than ten consecutive days, and it is not easy to open a second opening today, but you have a big price increase, I really don't know what you think. β
Ding Qian stretched out his hand and tore off the price list on the wall and said, "What do you think, I just want to earn more and more silver." β
Hu Ge was puzzled and said: "If you want to make more money, you can increase the price." You won't be afraid of high prices scaring away those who want to buy a house. β
Ding Qian said: "Don't worry, I said that there is a reason for the price increase." β
Hu Ge said: "What is the truth? Can you explain it clearly? β
Ding Qian shook his head and said incomprehensibly: "There are some truths that you can't understand, and when the time comes, when the facts are in front of you, you will know what's going on!" β
Hu Ge said disdainfully: "Well, you are there to make a fool of yourself, and when the house is pressed in your hands, you will regret it." β
Ding Qian said affirmatively: "You just have to rest assured, you can't suppress what you have in your hand, didn't Qiu Ju say just now, the peak is turning, I conclude that in less than three days, the sales of our Vientiane Garden will definitely have a big turnaround, and then I'm afraid that your sisters will be so busy that you don't even have time to eat." β
Hu Ge sneered: "Hmph, you are so confident!" β
Ding Qian nodded and said, "It's not self-confidence, but believing." β
Hu Ge asked, "What do you believe?" Who to believe? β
Ding Qian looked up at the window and said: "I believe that there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and I firmly believe that the prospect of Vientiane Park will definitely come to an unexpected peak." β
Hu Ge bit his lip and said, "Okay, then let's wait to see what you said about the peak circuit!" β
Sure enough, two days later, just before the afternoon was approaching, I heard a loud drum music from the east side of Freezer Street, from the city wall, followed by a burst of firecrackers.
The girls, who were sitting in the sales office chatting, hurried out of the house and stood at the doorway looking out over the city wall.
Ding Qian, who was in the office, also heard the sound of drums and firecrackers, but he was still slowly sipping tea there, because he knew in his heart that this must be the city gate dug by the government there.
Hu Ge, Qiu Ju and others stood at the door and watched for a while, but because of the distance, they didn't see anything. Qiu Ju asked Hu Ge, "Hu Ge, what's going on." β
Hu Ge shook his head and said, "I don't know either." β
Qiu Ju said: "Could it be that someone's family is marrying!" β
Hu Ge smiled and said: "Qiu Ju, don't guess there, there are residents in this freezer street now, what kind of relatives to marry?" β
Qiu Ju said: "Then it could be the opening of that store, what kind of opening celebration is it!" β
Hu Ge shook his head and said: "This is even more impossible, the general opening time is in the morning, so there is a reason for opening in the afternoon." Besides, there must be popularity in business, and at the moment there are no residents in this freezer street, so that fool is doing business. β
Qiu Ju stomped her feet and said, "This is not, that is not, who made such a big move and made a joke." Just the firecrackers went off for such a long time, how much silver did it cost. β
Hu Ge said with a smile: "People are happy to have silver, what do you feel sorry for, and the silver you saved won't give you a tael." β
Qiu Ju muttered: "Yes, now rich people are capricious." β
Hu Ge patted Qiu Ju's shoulder and said, "Qiu Ju, don't be here to figure it out, I really want to know, just go over and see if you understand!" β
Qiu Ju said: "You're right, then you can stay at home and watch the door, and I'll go with a few sisters to take a look." β
Hu Ge nodded and said, "Okay, anyway, no one will come to sell the house now." β
Qiu Ju waved her hand to the girl standing there and said, "The one who likes to watch the excitement will come with me, and the one who doesn't want to watch the excitement will stay and watch the door." β
Hearing Qiu Ju say this, three girls who loved to join in the fun said to Qiu Ju: "Sister Qiu Ju, let's go with you." β
Qiu Ju and the others walked east along the street, and when they came to a closer look, they saw two teams of soldiers holding five-colored flags standing at the foot of the city wall, each team was about fifty people, and behind these two groups of soldiers, there was a drum band, which was still playing festive music there.
In the still permeated smoke of firecrackers, there was a Taoist priest holding a compass, walking around the city wall, while muttering a mantra in his mouth, what heaven and earth are yellow, my lord has the sky. Ten thousand sects of the world, Taoism into prosperity.
Qiu Ju looked at it and felt very strange, so he walked lightly to a capital eunuch who led the team, stretched out his hand and gently pulled the corner of the capital eunuch's clothes, the capital eunuch saw that someone pulled the corner of his clothes, and was about to get angry, Qiu Ju smiled at the capital eunuch and said: "My lord, the little woman has something to do." β
When the eunuch saw that it was a beautiful girl who was pulling the corner of his clothes, he turned his anger into joy and said kindly, "Girl, what is the matter with you?" β
Qiu Juyan said in a warbler's voice: "My lord, may I ask, there are gongs and drums beating here, and firecrackers are sounding, what is the festive thing." β
The eunuch straightened his chest, took out a majestic and majestic look, and said, "Girl, don't you know, the court is going to add a city gate here, so that pedestrians can enter and exit." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Taoist priest and said, "No, this Taoist chief invited from Zhongnan Mountain is opening the city gate." β
Qiu Ju nodded and said, "That's great, you don't have to take a long detour to go to Yujie." Hooray, it's really a holy thing. β
The overseer said: "That's, that's, who made us blessed to meet a good emperor!" Although Banzai is a daily opportunity, he still cares about these small things that are closely related to the lives of ordinary people. It's a blessing for the country. β
Qiu Ju echoed: "Yes, yes, what you said is so right!" As he spoke, he said to the capital eunuch and said, "Then, my lord, you are busy." The little woman won't bother here. β
Qiu Ju and the three girls looked there for a while, only to see the Taoist priest wandering around at the foot of the city wall for a long time, and finally stood down in a position, and said to Chen Changzhou sitting in a sedan chair: "Lord Prefect, it is best to dig in this position." β
Chen Changzhou stepped down from the sedan chair, and an attendant handed over a shovel tied with red silk. Chen Changzhou took it, took two in his hand, and then symbolically dug up half a shovel of soil at the position pointed by the Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest opened his throat and shouted: "The city gate is broken and excavated." With the shouting, the drums were noisy again, and the firecrackers rang out in unison.
After hearing the firecrackers, twenty strong laborers rushed to the city wall with tools in their hands, and "dong dong" began to dig.
Qiu Ju saw that there was no more excitement, so she said to the three girls: "Let's go, let's go back!" β
Qiu Ju and the others returned to the sales office, and Hu Ge stepped forward and asked, "Qiu Ju, what are you doing with the earth-shattering noise?" β
Qiu Ju said: "The court wants to add a city gate there. β
Hu Ge nodded and said, "Oh, I see, I said how to make such a big move!" Then he said thoughtfully: "I said how did Ding Qian raise the price of the house!" Did he know in advance that there was going to be a wall there? β
Qiu Ju said: "It's impossible, I haven't seen Shopkeeper Ding go there in the past few days, how did he know that the court was going to add a city gate there." β
Hu Ge said: "Then how did he think of raising the price of the house, why didn't I think of it." β
Qiu Ju smiled: "This may be the difference between men and women!" Men are always far-sighted and prescient, and they can't accept it! β
At this time, I didn't know where Niu Wu came from, and interjected: "What foresight, what foresight?" Let me tell you, this is called the pig arching forward, and the chicken cutting backward, each with its own way of eating. In these years, as long as you have money in your hand, you can't get any news, that is, the emperor's concubine, who gave birth to a child that day, can know if you want to know, and don't understand what it means to have money to make ghosts grind. β
Qiu Ju said: "Niu Wu, don't talk nonsense here, the shopkeeper is prescient, why are you still not convinced!" β
Niu Wu circled around Qiu Ju twice and said, "Tut-tut, I didn't name the shopkeeper Ding, what are you coaxing?" Could it be that Shopkeeper Ding has given you any benefits? β
One sentence choked Qiu Ju with a big red face and said, "Niu Wu, why are you like a mad dog." β
Niu Wu smiled ill-intentionedly: "How can I be like a mad dog, it's just that I, Niu Wu, don't go around the back of the shopkeeper's ass all day long like some people." β
Hu Ge stepped forward and said: "Can the two of you both say a few words, this house is selling sluggishly, and you are still quarrelling, isn't it adding to people's blockage!" β
Niu Wu whispered to Hu Ge: "Hu Ge, this matter has nothing to do with you, what are you blocking, and the house sales can't be completed in a day or two, what's the hurry!" β
Before Hu Ge could speak, Qiu Ju stretched out his hand and pointed at Niu Wu's nose and said loudly: "Niu Wu, you really don't have a backache when you stand and talk, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are not at home, such a big stall, how much silver you have to press, change you, aren't you in a hurry!" β
Niu Wu waved his hand and said: "It's best not to pull this matter on me, my Niu Wu doesn't have such a big ability, lay down such a big stall, let you big girls and little daughters-in-law follow the hurry!" The urine is yellow. β
Qiu Ju glared angrily and said, "You ......" couldn't speak anymore.
Hu Ge scolded: "Niu Wu, you still have to be shameless, it's really not ashamed to say such obscene things in front of the big girl!" β
Niu Wu smiled and said: "Hmph, who is the big girl, I'm afraid that although some people are not married, they don't know how many times they have been put to sleep." β
Hu Ge said angrily: "Niu Wu, don't eat grapes here and say that grapes are sour, bury these sisters." β
Niu Wudao: "Phew, if you can't eat grapes and say that grapes are sour, just like them, don't give them to me for nothing." β
Qiu Ju rushed over and said, "Fart, just you stinky shit, you can't find a daughter-in-law even if you're a single person for a lifetime." β
Niu Wu was just about to refute, but Ding Qian walked in and said: "You guys are still not finished, are you only a few days old, you don't know who you are, what to do and what to do, don't chirp here." β
Qiu Ju pursed her lips, looking very aggrieved, lowered her head and tears rolled down.
Niu Wu glanced at Ding Qian a few times, wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but lost his words, turned and walked out of the sales office.
Ding Qian said to Hu Ge: "In the future, if someone who has nothing to do with the sales office comes in again, you will drive him out, don't affect the business here." β
Hu Ge said: "Everyone is a colleague, how can I be embarrassed to bomb out!" β
Ding Qian said with a calm face: "I'm sorry, how can I do it, you are in charge of this sales office!" β
Hu Ge had no choice but to say: "Okay, next time Niu Wu comes here again, I will drive him out." β
